What do YOU do when you've got time to kill?

It's a Saturday afternoon, you're home with just you and your husband, and you have a few hours to kill? What's the first thing that you want to do? Well, I don't know about you, but I wanted to style Nicks hair! He is growing it out right now so he can dread it. (It's one of his life long goals, so I am not about to get in the was of it.) It's getting pretty long, so I wanted to see if I could corn roll it. I figure the first thing I had to do was straighten it so it would be easier to manage. Here's what he looked like with it just straightened. Hahahahahahaha. Totally Asian! He's even doing the peace sign, but it got cut out of the picture. 
So after I straightened it, I began my first attempt to corn roll. Oh how frustrated I got. Finally, after about 25 minutes and about 1000 attempts, I told him I was just going to experiment and we'll see how it turns out. As I was doing it, I was trying to explain to him what it was I was doing, and he started getting worried saying that he was going to look like a little black girl with her hair in rubber bands. I tried to reassure him that he didn't and we just needed to wait until it was finished. Half way through, I ran out of rubber bands, so I ran to the store. I made him PROMISE me that he wouldn't look in the mirror while I was gone. He kept his word. When I finally got home, I did the last few rows, and finished my first "corn rolling" experience. He're is what the finished product looked like. 



We ended up going to a BBQ at his friend Kyle's that night and he put a bandanna over it. He totally looked like a thug, and I loved it! Hopefully he'll let me experiment on him again! :)

  1. LOL! You too are too funny, and oh so cute :) Sweet hairdo homey...and Sheri, way to go!!! Try braiding it when it gets a bit longer, but don't straighten it before you try braiding it :) I'll totally help you do it if you want :)
